Re: [RC] need ideas for good horse areas in west - Jeannie Gillen
Piute Springs Ranches in Kern County central
California is incredible "horse country".....at the very foot of the Sierra
range, elevations range from 3-7,000 ft.
My ranch is 8 miles from the Pacific Crest Trail
and about 12 miles south of Landers Meadow....parcels are generally 20 ac.
minimum, bordered by BLM and Sequoia National Forest. Open Range for
cattle, so I have no need to beg for trails....Four seasons move through here
and can change rapidly as it is mountainous...there is no better conditioning
for endurance than here...imho...go to "www.stagestopranchland.com"
Subject: [RC] need ideas for good horse
areas in west
Check out the high desert near Susanville, CA. (Costco's nearby in
Reno). I have family there & they don't usually get much snow. Or how
about the area that the new Patriot Ride was held? I've
driven through the area many times on my way to Lake
Almanor & Susanville and think it might be a good place to live and
the road is usually open when Hwy 80 is shut down due to snow conditions.
Maybe the ride management could give you some more info on the
area.
Good luck,

Grass Valley, CA (it's great living here, lots of trails, nice weather, but
prices are too high & "citiots" are moving closer &
closer)
